Certified Pre-Owned Cars vs. New and Used Cars

Both CPO and used vehicles come with benefits that new cars just can't provide, especially when it comes down to price. If a new car stretches your budget to its breaking point, and a used one sets that budget's baseline, then a certified pre-owned vehicle should refreshingly sit between the two. Balancing your budget will help determine the option that best suits your needs.

When it comes down to the nitty-gritty, certified pre-owned trucks, cars, SUVs, and vans are a better choice for people who want a mixture of new-car quality and used-car price. At our Kansas City dealerships, all certified pre-owned vehicles must meet the high-quality standards set by the manufacturer before being advertised or sold. This means that they must be late-model vehicles with low mileage and a clear vehicle history report. Certified vehicles from our dealerships are also rigorously tested, inspected, and reconditioned to guarantee they exceed even our expectations. Our trained technicians evaluate the car inside and out to ensure its like-new condition, repairing any defects to match the manufacturer's guidelines for proper certification. Used cars are typically older and may contain defects that would have been repaired in a CPO vehicle.

Another perk of buying certified used vehicles comes in the form of manufacturer warranty coverages. In general, CPO vehicles include warranties that extend original coverage on powertrains, engines, and other vehicle components. Most of these vehicles' original warranty balances can even be transferred to you upon purchase. The majority of used cars, on the other hand, come with limited warranties, if any at all.

Many certified used cars and other vehicles also come with additional packages (like roadside assistance or hassle-free exchanges within a few days of purchase) and superb financing options (interest rates on auto loans for CPO vehicles is comparable to those for new cars). Both add onto savings when compared to buying new.

Choosing between a certified pre-owned vehicle and one that's marked as "used" isn't like picking the lesser of two evils. Buying used is a fantastic way to save a carload of money; buying certified offers more security and confidence thanks to the vast assortment of warranty extensions, financing options, and additional packages available to customers.
